How to sidestep the Royal Mail strikes

How can you sidestep of even beat the Royal Mail strikes in the run up to Christmas? There are several things you can do.

Visit your nearest town and see what gift buying opportunities are there on your local High Street. Craft shops, giftware shops, local jewellers, haberdashers, clothing shops, toy shops, charity shops (which often sell new items or Amazon returns) market stalls at the local market, specialist Christmas markets, craft shops, wool shops, local bookshops, delicatessens, off licences, etc, etc. 

And speaking of Amazon, if you don't have a suitable nearby town why not open up an Amazon Prime account? If you open an Amazon Prime account many of the gift items that you will want to buy are offered on next day delivery and because Amazon Prime orders are usually delivered by couriers and not by Royal Mail you can be more certain of ensuring that the gifts you need will arrive even before you need them for the big day, Christmas Day on December 25th! 

And why not consider E-cards this Christmas? One such UK-based E-card company which has lovely Christmas cards is Jacquie Lawson. You can check her cards out here https://www.jacquielawson.com.
